Ye Qingyin has worked in Beijing for many years and is the personnel director of a directly affiliated cultural unit. She specially wrote a letter and instructed Chen Yuanwu to hand it personally to their vice president Wang Yuzhen.
Wang Yuzhen used to work in the education system and has a good relationship with the current leaders of the Education Bureau. She also knows many people in major primary and secondary schools. When the three children of the Chen family were in Beijing, they all attended the best primary and secondary schools. The middle school that Chen Yuanwu attended was one of the only two middle schools in Beijing that offered foreign language courses.
In order for Chen Jing to return to Beijing to study and for herself to return to work, Ye Qingyin must first say hello to the leaders of her unit.
Originally, Ye Qingyin could have called Wang Yuzhen at work during the day to explain the situation, but because Chen Yuanwu refused to budge on the matter of finding a partner, Ye Qingyin had to resort to this strategy.
Chen Yuanwu returned to the capital and first went home to put down his luggage.
The Chen family's home in Beijing was the dormitory assigned to Ye Qingyin and her colleagues by their work unit. It had once been a large mansion belonging to a Qing Dynasty noble family. After liberation, it was confiscated and allocated to their work unit. It was then renovated and used as a dormitory for the staff.
Ye Qingyin was assigned a small courtyard house with four rooms. Although it was located in the inner part and a little remote, it had the advantage of having its own door and courtyard, so it was usually quiet and undisturbed.
The sound of unlocking was particularly obvious in the quiet alley, alarming the people living next door.
Wang Yuzhen's daughter, Hong Hao, heard the noise and rushed out to open the door to see what was going on. She was stunned for a few seconds when she saw Chen Yuanwu in his military uniform. "It's Xiaowu? You're joining the army? Aren't you in college?"
Chen Yuanwu smiled and said, "Xiao Hagi, I have been in the army for half a year."
Hong Hao hurried home and called out, "Xiao Wu, have you eaten yet? Come to my house and have something to eat. I'll ask my aunt to make you some noodles. My mom was just talking about you."
Chen Yuanwu thought about it and didn't refuse. He hung the padlock on the door knocker, turned around and followed Hong Hao into Wang Yuzhen's courtyard.
The two families have lived next to each other for more than ten years and are very familiar with each other.
Wang Yuzhen finished reading the letter with a smile, then looked up at Chen Yuanwu sitting at the dining table eating noodles in big mouthfuls.
She watched this child grow up, and he looked very handsome in his military uniform.
After joining the army, Chen Yuanwu developed the habit of eating quickly. He could finish a big bowl of tomato and egg noodles in no time.
As a result, the aunt ran to buy black tea and politely said thank you.
Wang Yuzhen was extremely happy: "Xiaowu, I told you that your mother should have come back a long time ago. Xiaojing has wasted a year in vain! Don't worry, I'll ask someone to let Xiaojing repeat a year. In Beijing, if she misses even a week of classes, she won't be able to catch up."
Hong Hao was interested in something else: "Xiao Wu, you're doing well in college, why do you want to join the army? Will you go back to school when the time comes?"
Chen Yuanwu shook his head slightly. "I'm going to the headquarters to take the military academy exam tomorrow, and I'll be in the army from now on."
Hong Hao lamented, "Oh! Tsk, tsk, tsk, another outstanding diplomat has been lost! Our great poet and essayist will only be able to write about the lonely smoke in the desert from now on, and will never be able to write about the apricot blossoms and spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River again!"
However, the elegant Xiao Wu now does have a heroic spirit, and is much more handsome than the stern and murderous Uncle Chen!
Wang Yuzhen smiled and glared at her daughter. "Xiao Hagi, what are you talking about? If Xiao Wu doesn't become a diplomat, the army will have another general!"
Chen Yuanwu smiled and said, "Auntie Wang, you're too kind! There are many outstanding people in the army, and I still need to work hard."
Wang Yuzhen couldn't stop laughing after hearing this.
What the letter said was true, Xiao Wu is really getting better and better, and he is worthy of any girl.
"Xiao Wu, go back and tell your mother that I will definitely do everything she asked me to do, so she can rest assured. Go home and take a look at the flowers your mother asked me to grow, they are all doing well!"
Chen Yuanwu stood up and said goodbye: "Okay, Aunt Wang, thank you for your hard work. I will report to the headquarters soon. I will stay there tonight and will not be back. I'm sorry to trouble you to take care of my family."
After taking a walk back home, Chen Yuanwu left quickly.
Wang Yuzhen's smile was still on her face. "Xiao Hagi, take a look at your classmates and see if there's anyone suitable. Keep an eye out for Xiao Wu!"
The main point of Ye Qingyin's letter was to let Wang Yuzhen see Chen Yuanwu's current appearance with her own eyes and find a suitable partner for him.
Hong Hao shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Mom, you and Aunt Ye are really worried about nothing. Xiao Wu is so smart and brave, are you still worried about whether he can find a partner?"
Wang Yuzhen said seriously, "It's just the opposite. I'm not afraid that she won't be able to find him, I'm afraid that he'll be taken away by a pig!"
The young man stood there, so dazzling that he was the favorite of his mother-in-law: "Xiao Hagi, it's a pity that you are two years older than Xiao Wu. Otherwise, you and Xiao Wu would be a good match."
Hong Hao jumped up, waving his hands anxiously: "Okay, okay, Mom, please stop making such a fuss. This has nothing to do with me! We grew up together. Apart from having different surnames, we're just like family. Please don't say a word about it!"
Wang Yuzhen asked seriously, "You told me not to mention it, so why don't you find one and bring it back for me and your dad to see!"
Hong Hao was helpless: "Okay, Mom, I promise you, I'll let Xiao Wu take a look at two and bring them back for you to review first, okay?"
Wang Yuzhen nodded and said, "Okay, you should hurry up too. Your Aunt Ye said that there are many people who like Xiao Wu, but their family conditions are not good enough. She wants to find a partner for Xiao Wu in Beijing."
The mother and daughter chatted enthusiastically, thinking about the people they each knew, and the good girls who could be a good match for Chen Yuanwu.
Chen Yuanwu, who was sold out by Ye Qingyin, actually guessed what Ye Qingyin would say to Wang Yuzhen, but he pretended not to know and left the Wang family smoothly and reported to the headquarters.
He has two days of exams and originally wanted to take some time to visit his classmates, but now it seems unnecessary. He should find a way to contact Chen Yuefei.
Your destiny is your own, so of course you have to control it yourself!
Many people resist their parents' control over their lives. In fact, if they are willing to take on their own responsibilities, their parents will not interfere but will strongly support them.
Only those children who lack backbone will make their parents unable to help but take care of everything for them.
Chen Yuanwu has decided that his marriage is a major event. The opinions of his parents and elders are only for reference, and he will act according to his own heart!
As for the location of Chen Yuefei's camp, he could find out. The equipment for the major military regions around the capital was distributed and transported by his equipment department. Finding Jiang Yun wasn't that difficult.
Thinking of his beloved girl, Chen Yuanwu was filled with joy.
